About
Hi, I’m Phil Hamilton, a fast and proficient video editor and producer based in San Francisco with over 20 years of experience delivering high-quality content for commercials, news, and sales segments. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am often the go-to person during breaking news, consistently meeting tight deadlines. I’m proficient with Premiere Pro and Edius and enjoy adding motion graphics, color correction, music, and clean audio editing to storytelling.
Hi, I’ve led edit crews of up to 10 people and coordinated production calendars from pre-production through air. I’ve produced and edited content for local and national clients, daily promos, lifestyle segments, and long-form shows, while building robust media management and archiving systems for multi-format delivery.
